When you try to set yourself up for the mission that you are on earth for, you clearly see how the forces are formed against you. Sometimes we are internally challenged which path to choose. At times what brings us under the cloud in moving forward in the ministry entrusted to us is the external pressure that is sure to come. You almost give up when the pressure starts from your own and around you. It explains very well how our Lord Jesus was challenged at the start of His earthly ministry. “He has an unclean spirit; He’s doing this by the power of the devil,” they were attributing the works of God’s Holy Spirit to Satan. He didn’t even have time to eat bread, because He was just giving Himself so completely to the needs of the people. He healed many. He preached to many. He transformed many. When they started following Him, the external forces, the forces of this world were becoming stronger. But there is no sign of Jesus getting disturbed because he knew that he was doing the will of the father. His trust was in the Father.

Prayer: Abba Father, please help me to keep connected to You and to focus on purpose entrusted to me. Amen
